Hello and welcome! I’m not a conventional therapist! Clients have told me they appreciate my authenticity, sarcasm and relatability, and I often use humor and pop culture references when appropriate as I feel this helps diffuse difficult topics and often enhances the therapeutic relationship. I tailor my work with clients to each client's specific needs and personality style.
Couples therapy- Are you feeling stuck in your relationship? Have one or both of you tossed around the dreaded D-word (divorce)?

My approach is individualized and grounded in evidence-based care, using CBT, ACT, exposure-based therapies, and nervous system regulation to support your goals.
I work with adults who are used to carrying a great deal while still appearing capable, dependable, and composed. Many are veterans, first responders, or professionals in demanding, high-responsibility roles. Others simply know what it feels like to live under pressure for a long time and start feeling the toll it has taken. They often seek therapy when stress, burnout, trauma, anxiety, or disconnection begin affecting how they feel, function, or relate to themselves and others.

My approach draws from CBT, ACT, EFT, and the Gottman Method.
I work with individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and the impact of trauma, shame, or difficult past experiences. Many feel stuck in patterns they can’t break, like overthinking, emotional distance, or repeated conflict. Together, we slow things down, understand what’s driving these patterns, and work toward more clarity, stability, and meaningful change.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
